Creamy No Bake Cookie Butter Cheesecake

  • Author: Nora Winslow
  • Total Time: 4 hours 25 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings 1x

Description

This creamy no bake cookie butter cheesecake features a silky, cloud-light filling swirled with cookie butter atop a buttery cookie crust. It’s outrageously easy, requires no oven, and is guaranteed to impress at any gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 28 Speculoos or Biscoff cookies (about 200g, or 2 cups crumbs)
  • 6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 ounces (450g) full-fat cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1 cup (250g) cookie butter spread, plus more for topping
  • 3/4 cup (90g) powdered sugar
  • 1 cup (240ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 2 teaspoons (10ml) vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional toppings: extra cookie crumbs, melted cookie butter, whipped cream

Instructions

  1. Crush the cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by hand. Mix with melted butter and a pinch of salt until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Freeze while preparing the filling.
  2. In a cold bowl, whip the heavy cream with a hand mixer on medium-high until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and fluffy (about 2 minutes). Add cookie butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Beat until completely smooth and mousse-like.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cookie butter mixture with a spatula until fully combined, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
  5. Spoon the filling onto the chilled crust and smooth the top. Drizzle with melted cookie butter and swirl with a toothpick if desired. Cover and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours (overnight is best). To serve, run a thin knife around the edge before releasing the pan. Slice and top with extra cookie crumbs or whipped cream if desired.

Notes

For gluten-free, use gluten-free cookies for the crust. Chill at least 4 hours for clean slices; overnight is best. Room temperature cream cheese is essential for a smooth filling. For extra flair, drizzle melted cookie butter on top and swirl before chilling. Slices freeze well for up to 2 months.
